Sang Qianqian suddenly came back to her senses and realized that she had misspoken. Seeing Xie Shi’an’s red fingers, she felt even more apologetic. “I’ll help you clean it up.”
She stood up to get the first aid kit, but he stopped her. “It’s nothing serious.” He called the servants to clean up the mess on the floor before saying to her, “Actually, you don’t have to blame yourself. If Shen Hanyu was here, it might have backfired.”
Sang Qianqian looked up at Xie Shi’an. He said calmly, “Have you forgotten what Ruan Xiaodie said? She wouldn’t give Shen Hanyu the chance to save Shen Shaofeng, and he might not have survived until now.”
Sang Qianqian was speechless. This sentence was indeed the truth, and it had always been her concern. This was why Ruan Xiaodie had been holding her back for so long.
Besides, even if she told Shen Hanyu, he was stuck in a lawsuit abroad. Telling him would only add to his troubles.
She suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness in her heart, and her mood fell to the lowest point. No matter what she did, it seemed to be wrong. If she told Shen Hanyu that Ruan Xiaodie really killed Shen Shaofeng, she would never be able to forgive herself.
However, if she did not tell Shen Hanyu that something had happened to Shen Shaofeng while he was imprisoned, she would feel guilty and would not be able to face him…
There was a light knock on the door. Xu Meixi stood at the door. “Mr. Xie, Sister Qianqian.”
She had come to bid farewell. She had stayed in the Xie family’s residence for several months, and Li Zhongjin had already given up on searching for her whereabouts. Sang Qianqian had already arranged a place for her to go. Today was the day she would leave the capital.
Xie Shi’an nodded at Xu Meixi, stood up, and left.
“Are you done packing?”
Sang Qianqian walked over and smiled. “Let’s go. I’ll send you to the airport.” “Thank you so much, Sister Qianqian,” Xu Meixi said gratefully. “You’ve done so much for me.”
She insisted on keeping the child in her belly, and Li Zhongjin already had the intention to kill her. If he found her, the consequences could be imagined.
Sang Qianqian not only saved her and took her in, but also helped her avoid Li Zhongjm’s search and revenge. She even arranged for her future and retreat.
She didn’t know how to repay Sang Qianqian for saving her life. What she could do for the latter was too little.
“It’s nothing.”
Sang Qianqian did not mind. “Besides, I only said a few words. Shi’an was the one who arranged most of the things.”
“Mr. Xie and I don’t know each other at all. If it weren’t for you, Sister Qianqian, I’m afraid Mr. Xie wouldn’t have needed to help me.”
Xu Meixi looked at Sang Qianqian’s expression and probed, “Sister Qianqian, did you and Mr. Xie have a fight just now?”
Before she reached Sang Qianqian’s room, she heard the sound of a porcelain bowl shattering. When she quickened her pace, she happened to hear Xie Shi’an’s last two sentences. He mentioned saving people and Shen Hanyu. Moreover, the atmosphere between the two was obviously not right.
“There’s no quarrel, it’s just… Something happened.”
Sang Qianqian said vaguely, “We wanted to find someone, but we couldn’t find him no matter what.”
“I seem to have heard Mr. Xie say that President Shen wants to save someone?” Xu Meixi continued to ask, “Is the person you are looking for the same person that President Shen is trying to save? Is his name… Shen Shaofeng?” Sang Qianqian knew that Xu Meixi must have heard her conversation with Xie Shi’an, so she nodded. “Yes.”
“What’s President Shen’s relationship with Shen Shaofeng?” Xu Meixi asked anxiously.
Sang Qianqian was a little surprised that Xu Meixi was so concerned about this, but she still answered, “He is Hanyu’s father.”
“Father?”
Xu Meixi lost her voice and looked up. “Sister Qianqian, I think I’ve heard this name from Li Zhongjin.”
Sang Qianqian was stunned and said in disbelief, “Are you sure? When did this happen?”
“About a few months ago, when I was still living with him.”
Xu Meixi said with certainty, “At that time, I heard him lose his temper with his subordinates once. I recall hearing him ask them to call a doctor immediately, saying that if Shen Shaofeng died, their repayment wouldn’t be enough even if they offered their lives. He also said…”
The blood in Sang Qianqian’s body seemed to have frozen as she hurriedly said “What else?”
“He continued, saying to quickly change Shen Shaofeng’s residence…” Xu Meixi seemed to have realized something. “There’s a small courtyard in Li Zhongjm’s villa, and several people are guarding it strictly. No one is allowed to get close. It’s very likely that the person locked up inside is Shen Shaofeng…” The small courtyard was guarded by special people, so it was impossible to enter. No one knew who was locked up inside.
Although Xu Meixi wanted to find out this person’s identity, Li Zhongjin was very cautious. Secondly, she found out that she was pregnant not long after and completely fell out with him. She could not even take care of herself, so the matter was left unsettled.
Sang Qianqian’s heart started beating violently, as if it was about to burst out of her chest. “Is there a parasol tree in that small courtyard? Are the walls gray?”
Xu Meixi was a little surprised. “Sister Qianqian, how did you know?”
Sang Qianqian hugged Xu Meixi, feeling extremely excited, “Meixi, thank you for telling me this news!”
She never thought that she would accidentally get Shen Shaofeng’s whereabouts from Xu Meixi!
The matter of saving someone was of great importance, so she immediately went to look for Xie Shi’an.
Things couldn’t be delayed anymore, as changes might happen. Sang Qianqian and Xie Shi’an decided that they had to bring people to Li Zhongjin’s villa now and catch him off guard.
Otherwise, if Li Zhongjin got the news and moved Shen Shaofeng away, it would be even more troublesome.
“Li Zhongjin’s villa is very big. The small courtyard is a little remote and it’s not easy to find.”
Xu Meixi volunteered. ‘Til go with you to lead the way. It’ll be faster.”
“But once you go, won’t Li Zhongjin know that you’re still in the capital?”
Sang Qianqian did not agree. If that was the case, not only would all of Xu Meixi’s previous efforts of staying in the Xie family’s residence to avoid Li Zhongjin be in vain, but once he saw her, she would also be in danger again.
111 go to the airport immediately after I show you the way.”
Xu Meixi said, “Uncle Shen’s matter will make Li Zhongjin anxious for a few days. By the time he finds the energy to look for me, I will have left long ago.” “That day, I was framed by him and his mother, saying that I poisoned the Zhen family’s old lady and almost ended up in prison. It was President Shen who cleared my name. Not only did he not pursue the matter, but he also intended to help me leave Beijing. THerefore, I’m just going to lead the way. If I can save Uncle Shen, it can be considered as my repayment to President Shen.” Seeing her insistence, Sang Qianqian couldn’t help but hesitate.
“It’s good to let Meixi go. She’s more familiar with the situation in the villa. The sooner we can find Shen Shaofeng, the faster we can save him.”
Xie Shi’an said, “After we’re done, I’ll arrange for bodyguards to escort Meixi to the airport and leave the capital.”
Twenty minutes later.
Li Zhongjin’s villa was surrounded by Xie Shi’an’s men. Several bodyguards tried to stop him, but they failed to do so..
